Food play

This article is about sexual fetishism involving food. For the cultural relationship between food and sexuality, see Food and sexuality. For the song, see Jigsaw (Lady Sovereign album).

Food play, also known as sitophilia, refers to a form of sexual fetishism in which participants are aroused by erotic situations involving food.

Food play overlaps with other fetishes, including wet and messy fetishism, feederism, and nyotaimori. It is differentiated from vorarephilia in that food play fetishizes food while vore fetishizes the act of eating a living creature, or being eaten alive.

Practice

Any food can be considered erotic, depending on the context and the viewer.

Certain foods, such as bananas and hot dogs, are commonly considered fetish objects due to having a phallic shape. Foods that can be eaten off of another person, such as whipped cream or melted chocolate, are also popular, especially in popular culture.

Some foods and herbs are purported to cause sexual arousal, and can have sexual connotations, such as oysters.

Home dildo makers are produced to allow food to be sculpted into a phallic shape for easier insertion.

Alcohol

A body shot is a shot of alcohol that is consumed from a person's body. Body shots are done either by taking a shot from a glass on a person's body, or the shot is poured onto a person's body and licked up by another person. The term "body shot" can also mean a shot drinking ritual that involves the use of another person's body, such as taking a shot from a glass and licking salt off of a person's body afterwards.

Wakamezake (わかめ酒), also called wakame sake and seaweed sake, involves drinking alcohol from a woman's body. The woman closes her legs tight enough that the triangle between the thighs and mons pubis form a cup, and then pours sake down her chest into this triangle. Her partner then drinks the sake from there. The name comes from the idea that the woman's pubic hair in the sake resembles soft seaweed (wakame) floating in the sea.
